Do plants adjust their sex allocation and secondary sexual morphology in response to their neighbours?

Annals of botany - 1 Nov 2012

Vilas Julia Sánchez, Pannell John R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Changes in the sex allocation (i.e. in pollen versus seed production) of hermaphroditic plants often occur in response to the environment. In some homosporous ferns, gametophytes choose their gender in response to chemical cues sent by neighbours, such that spores develop as male gametophytes if they perceive a female or hermaphrodite nearby. Here it is considered whether a similar process...
